Hi, this is a deliberate design. The cache_size field of copen is
specified by the user daemon. If cache_size < 0, then the OPEN request
is expected to fail, while copen itself shall succeed.

However, it is indeed unexpected when cache_size is an invalid error
code. How about:

		if (!IS_ERR_VALUE(size))
-			size= -EINVAL;
+			ret = size = -EINVAL;
		req->error = size;
		goto out;
	}
